91c6b1a6d2 composefs: Add some basic docs
Let's describe the state of things at a high level, independent
of the tracking issue which has a lot more detail (and hence noise).

This document keeps things at a high level and describes how to
enable things today.

008c5a9540 bin/remote-refs: Add option to print revisions
The only other way to get the remote ref revision from the CLI is to
scrape the output of `ostree remote summary` or pull the commit. The
revision is already there in the summary's ref map, so might as well add
an option to show it.

e234b630f8 Support overlayfs whiteouts on checkout
Introduces an intermediate format for overlayfs storage, where
.wh-ostree. prefixed files will be converted into char 0:0
whiteout devices used by overlayfs to mark deletions across layers.

The CI scripts now uses a volume for the scratch directories
previously in /var/tmp otherwise we cannot create whiteout
devices into an overlayfs mounted filesystem.

10e465c3c4 Add sysroot.bootprefix option
This is a follow up to
0ced9fde76
"sysroot: Support /boot on root or as seperate filesystem for syslinux and u-boot"

What we should have done at the time is changed our bootloader entries
to be prefixed with `/boot`.  This means that the GRUB2 BLS support
will Just Work.

For now, I'm making this option default to off out of a lot of
conservatism.  I think in the future we should flip this on by default.

ad0354ac36 cli/rev-parse: Add --single option
In the current "ostree native container" flow, we're inserting
a commit object into the repo but with no refs.

We have hacks in a few places to find the commit digest via e.g.
`find repo/objects -name *.commit` but that's a horrible hack.
Add `ostree rev-parse --single` which will print the single commit,
and error out if there is not exactly one commit.

6fbf759279 lib/repo: Add commit version metadata to summary metadata
The commit metadata `version` key is well established but getting it for
a remote commit is cumbersome since the commit object needs to be
fetched and loaded. Including it in the summary additional metadata
allows a much more convenient view of what each of the remote refs
represents.

511c7a13ee Add support for "custom remotes"
This will be helpful for the "ostree native container" work in
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree-rs-ext/

Basically in order to reuse GPG/signapi verification, we need
to support adding a remote, even though it can't be used via
`ostree pull`.  (At least, not until we merge ostree-rs-ext into ostree, but
 even then I think the principle stands)

8821ec6e56 upgrade: Stabilize deployment staging
We're waaay overdue for this, it's been the default

around not capturing `/etc` while things are running.

Also, `ostree admin upgrade --stage` (should) become idempotent.

Changes were done with:

This provides a wrapper for the `ostree_repo_remote_get_gpg_keys`

particularly useful for validating that GPG key updates have been
applied. Tests are added, which checks the
`ostree_repo_remote_get_gpg_keys` API by extension.

857587615d Add an API+CLI to inject metadata for bootable OSTree commits
I was doing some rpm-ostree work and I wanted to compare two
OSTree commits to see if the kernel has changed.  I think
this should be a lot more natural.

Add `ostree commit --bootable` which calls into a new generic
library API `ostree_commit_metadata_for_bootable()` that
discovers the kernel version and injects it as an `ostree.linux`
metadata key.  And for extra clarity, add an `ostree.bootable`
key.

It's interesting because the "core" OSTree layer is all about
generic files, but this is adding special APIs around bootable
OSTree commits (as opposed to e.g. flatpak as well as
things like rpm-ostree's pkgcache refs).

Eventually, I'd like to ensure everyone is using this and
hard require this metadata key for the `ostree admin deploy`
flow - mainly to prevent accidents.

4db2ba0eb1 pull: Allow disabling commit binding verification
In some cases such as backups or mirroring you may want to pull commits
from one repo to another even if there commits that have incorrect
bindings. Fixing the commits in the source repository to have correct
bindings may not be feasible, so provide a pull option to disable
verification.

For Endless we have several repositories that predate collection IDs and
ref bindings. Later these repositories gained collection IDs to support
the features they provide and ref bindings as the ostree tooling was
upgraded. These repositories contain released commits that were valid to
the clients they were targeting at the time. Correcting the bindings is
not really an option as it would mean invalidating the repository
history.

31acd2ef99 Add support for explicitly requesting any specific bootloader type
...with the `sysroot.bootloader` configuration option.  This can be useful
when converting a system to use `ostree` which doesn't currently have a
bootloader configuration that `ostree` can automatically detect, and is
also useful in combination with the `--sysroot` option when provisioning a
rootfs for systems other than the one you're running `ostree admin deploy`
on.

558720e7aa checkout: Don't hardlink zero sized files
Alternative to https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2197

Python's (usually) zero-sized `__init__.py` files can provoke
us hitting the hardlink limits on some filesystems (`EMLINK`).
At least one Fedora rpm-ostree user hit this.

The benefits of hardlinking here are quite marginal; lots
of hardlinks can behave suboptimally in particular filesystems
like BTRFS too.

This builds on prior code which made this an option, introduced
in 673cacd633
Now we just do it uncondtionally.

Also this provoked a different bug in a very obscure user mode checkout
case; when the "real" permissions were different from the "physical"
permissions, we would still hardlink.  Fix the test case for this.

a615d35762 pull: Add --per-object-fsync
This is the opposite of
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/1184

Motivated by OpenShift seeing etcd performance issues during
OS updates: https://github.com/openshift/machine-config-operator/issues/1897

Basically, if we switch to invoking `fsync()` as we go, it makes
ostree performance worse (in my tests, 31s to write 2G versus 7s if we
delay sync) but it avoids *huge* outliers in `fsync()` time for etcd.

329a82c57e commit: Add --base argument
I was trying to followup the `--selinux-policy-from-base` work
to add a `cosa build --fast=overlay` for coreos-assembler,
but hit on the fact that using e.g. `--owner-uid` disables
commit optimizations.

A while ago, https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1643 landed
which optimized this for the case where no modifications are provided.
But, we really need the SELinux policy bits, and it's super convenient
to run `ostree commit` as non-root.

It's fairly surprising actually that it's taken us so long to
iterate on a good interface for this "commit changes on top of a base"
model.  In practice, many nontrivial cases really end up needing
to do a (hardlink) checkout, and that case is optimized.

But for this coreos-assembler work I want to directly overlay onto
a commit object another commit object.

That previous PR above added exactly the API we need, so let's
expose it in the CLI.

What you can see happening in the test is that we provide
`--owner-uid 42`, but that only applies to directories/files
that were added in the commit.

And now that I look at this, I think what we really want here
is to avoid changing directories that exist in the base, but
eh; in practice the main use here is for `--owner-uid 0` while
committing as non-root; and that works fine with this since
the baseline uid will be zero as well.
